Sophisticated Christmas Plaid

Hello everyone,

Today's Christmas post is another pretty plaid card.


The card base is a black of unknown origin.  The printed paper is also of unknown origin layered on Recollections Vanilla.  The holly sprig is Penny Black's Holly Berries die, cut from mirrored green of unknown origin.  The sentiment is Creative Expressions Santa's Sentiments stamped in Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler of more Recollections Vanilla.  The card is highlighted with Burgundy Stickles.

All the elements of this card were found in my leftover bin of Christmas bits.  Though just a few elements, this card took forever to come together.  It was a challenge until I was inspired to trim the large circle and adhere it to the side of the card.  I love that there was enough space to place three dots of Stickles to the left of the sentiment.  The black adds another level of sophistication that fits in with the mirrored green sprig of holly.  The card isn't actually as dark as the photo appears.

I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.
